Techniques and apparatuses for access in a backhaul network

A base station for wireless communication, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• one or more processors operatively coupled to the memory, the memory and the one or more processors configured to:
• detect one or more base stations based at least in part on synchronization communications associated with the one or more base stations;
• determine one or more priority levels associated with the one or more base stations,
• wherein a given priority level, of the one or more priority levels, identifies a priority associated with initiating access to a wireless backhaul network via a respective base station of the one or more base stations;
• and
• initiate, based at least in part on the one or more priority levels, an access procedure with a set of base stations of the one or more base stations.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions for wireless communication, the instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a base station, cause the one or more processors to:
• detect one or more base stations based at least in part on synchronization communications associated with the one or more base stations;
• determine one or more priority levels associated with the one or more base stations,
• wherein a given priority level, of the one or more priority levels, identifies a priority associated with initiating access to a wireless backhaul network via a respective base station of the one or more base stations;
• and
• initiate, based at least in part on the one or more priority levels, an access procedure with a set of base stations of the one or more base stations.

A method of wireless communication, comprising:

• determining, by a base station, a load factor associated with the base station;
• transmitting, by the base station and to a different base station, information associated with the load factor,
• wherein the load factor is transmitted in association with determining a priority level associated with the base station,
• wherein the priority level identifies a priority associated with initiating access to a wireless backhaul network via the base station, and
• wherein an access procedure is initiated by the different base station based at least in part on the priority level.
